Scalebane Swarmkeeper is a Enemy Scalebane Boss Non-Player Character. They can be found in The Radiant Dunes and The Arena.
The Scalebane Swarmkeeper is an adept sorcerer in the service of the Scalebane faction.
History[]
The Scalebane have militarized their efforts over time, as they exerted their dominance over the Majel'kan desert. The Scalebane is encountered in the Radiant Dunes, where they have built fortifications to keep away unwanted guests. The Swarmkeeper, a powerful insect keeper, guards in front of a courtyard where prisoners are kept, however one man is found alive: Zerrick. The wizard is fought by the Traveler, putting up a hard fight before surrendering.
Tactics[]
The Swarmkeeper has the ability to tame swarms of bugs, which he summons indefinitely at the player in the form of deadly area attacks. He excels in dealing lots of poison damage over time, which requires adequate resists and sustain. The Swarmkeeper usually uses two attacks: sending poisonous swarms forward that home in on the player and explode into poison, and conjuring growing swarms in an area that lower poison resistance and deal damage.
If brought into at around 60% health, the Swarmkeeper activates a ring of orbiting swarms at range that continuously poisons; this forces to fight him in close range. The wizard also calls forth a seemingly endless stream of Desert Stingers, which will swarm endlessly until the wizard's death.
